optimize your life review
maybe it’s a feature not a bug
If it is a simulation, data from the life review could be used to analyze net happiness / sadness from different political, social & economic systems
An average of 150,000 people pass away each day. If we had life review data, we could compare countries to see who is doing the best and copy best practices
does this matter to me?
It’s safest to assume it does. The projects below create positive emotion
autism
Taxpayers cover a four-bedroom house for eight people
If we build eight-bedroom houses, each disabled resident will have their own bedroom
To fund this, we can use the housing to help European immigrants until converting to a group home
European connection
This project will help fund the autism project
Americans with European heritage may want to help European immigrants & maybe get dual citizenship
If temporary housing is needed, we can use a group home building until it is converted to a group home
benefits of dual citizenship
It’s expensive, but worth it
America’s culture has been shifting for about fifty years
We think we’re implementing optimal solutions but we are missing one key data point, life review data
the great non-replacement
After WWII we had a baby boom, but boomers did not replace themselves
it takes four workers per retiree
Without the 4:1 ratio, social security payments have to go down
in 1970, we decided to boost Immigration
This was massively successful. Foreign-born population increased from 4% to 13%
In 1970, 1 in 25 was a new American. Now it is 1 in 8
This helped, but we still cannot maintain the 4:1 worker to retiree ratio
Get more women working
Since 1970, the percentage of women with a bachelor’s degree has increased from 43% to 57%
This helped too, but we are still below the 4:1 worker to retiree ratio
birth rate drop continues
This chart ends in 2016
In 2024, childless rate is 50% at age 30
America’s per capita gdp 2X Europe
United States is at $85K per capita while Europe is at $42K
Capitalism drives American public policy more than other countries because we don’t have a specific nationality to worry about
Countries like Germany have to worry about German birth rate, so they offer things like three years paid leave
America doesn’t have this problem because we can attract and integrate massive amounts of immigrants.
We don’t have pro-birth policies. Children are actually anti-capitalist because they distract the mother from being productive in the workplace and it takes up to twenty six years to rear and fully educate a child
clash of the titans
America has done everything it can to maintain social security at the current level but the Baby Boom is so large that we cannot maintain the 4:1 worker to retiree level
The choices are, raise the retirement age or tax capitalism. Both of these options are unspeakable, but at some point the discussion will be required
